Student Reviews of Professor Cary Lukas

“He’s wonderful! Super funny and if you have any issues with your grade he has no problems lending you a hand! So glad he was my prof.”

“One of the best teachers I have had. He is really funny and really cares about his students. He reaches his goal to entertain students. He gives many extra credit opportunities and attendance is important. Only 2 tests the whole year, the first was take home. No homework. Textbook is not needed for this class, even though, he says you to get one.”

“The BEST teacher I have ever had. So funny and truly cares about every single one of his students. The class is so easy, you just have to show up. He brings snacks and makes everyone happy. 10/10 HIGHLY RECOMMEND.”

Student Reviews of Professor Scott Alexander

“I was having a rough beginning to the semester so I missed a bunch of classes. I explained the situation to him and he was super nice and helpful about it. He even let me turn in a lot of assignments late. He’s a great professor, his assignments are super easy and take 5 minutes.”

“He’s such a sweetheart!! He is so understanding and helpful. He has s life just like us and will cancel class sometimes just because it’s necessary to take a personal day. No tests, just a few projects which are all easy. I enjoyed his class so much.”

“Mr. Alexander is an amazing teacher! His tests are super easy, they’re take homes. Just do your discussions every week, and do the simple projects! Promise it’s an easy A! Super understanding and helpful. Just go to class because attendance does matter. I ENCOURAGE anyone who can take him, TAKE HIM!”

Student Reviews of Professor John Schiro

“Out of the 4 years I’ve been at CCU, Schiro has been my favorite professor by far. He genuinely cares about his students and he truly enjoys what he teaches. He has helped me become more confident in my abilities and I’m leaving his class a much stronger artist. He’s got the best stories and I wish I could have him for every class.”

“Best Art professor Ive had At this school , I 100% respect him. Great skills and he really lets you express yourself . Plus he is a very understanding guy!”

“Amazing, hilarious professor. Had him for two classes in the same semester and wish he taught Life Drawing as well!”

4. Professor Christopher Powell

Student Reviews of Professor Christopher Powell

“I took him last semester for 202 and he is a great professor. He makes his lectures interesting and tries not to make them too long. He gives good extra credit opportunities and his quizzes and tests aren’t killer. If he taught another class that I needed for my major then I would definitely take him again.”

“Powers gives great lectures and tried to get the whole class involved in the discussion. I had him for an 8am class, but he was ready to go every morning with coffee in hand. Always got right back to me with my questions. Straight forward and fun history class!”

“Professor Powers was straight forward when I first met him. He lets you know, He does not teach from powerpoints or writing on the board.. He simply just talks to you. At first you think.. WHAT? But honestly, It was okay. His test are not crazy challenging. Simple Extra Credits are given & We hardly used the book, only for a references. He’s Great!”

5. Professor Roy Talbert

Student Reviews of Professor Roy Talbert

“Love this teacher, I would take his class a thousand times over. I highly recommend.”

“Great teacher!!! He really knows his history and his stories are interesting! You don’t need to go to class. He gives you a study guide and the test questions come STRAIGHT from that! Easy A!”

“Best history professor at CCU. I attended almost every class even though I didn’t really have to. He is so knowledgeable and passionate about what he is teaching. I never really enjoyed history until taking this class. His lectures are so interesting and his tests are easy. No textbook! Definitely would take him again if I had the opportunity.”

2. Professor John Marcis

Courses Taught by Professor John Marcis

Student Reviews of Professor John Marcis

“He’s a super smart guy but possibly one of the worst professors i have taken at CCU. Doesn’t respond to emails, does not care about grade, the tests are not crazy hard but he doesn’t give any study guide whatsoever. Do NOT take his Micro class.”

“Dr. Marcis is one of the worst professors at CCU. He is hard to reach during his office hours, does not know how to answer questions students ask, and does not assign homework. Grades are determined on 4 exams – sample questions are helpful. I would not recommend him just because he gets very confused when a student asks a question.”

“Do not take this class unless you want to fail on purpose. Had no interest in helping students succeed. Very rude when I went to his office hours.”

3. Professor Clara Brown

Student Reviews of Professor Clara Brown

“One word: AWFUL. No help, doesn’t care, and SUPER old.”

“She was so difficult to follow and gave no effort whatsoever to teach, but rather just wrote what was already in the book on the board. When you did ask a question, she just assumed you didn’t do you homework and still didn’t explain anything. She was awful and I only attended her course for three weeks before I dropped it because I was failing.”

“She makes no effort to explain steps of a process, and when asked, she often calls the student out, assuming they haven’t read the book. Every lesson plan, every example, practically every word she says is taken directly from the book. If you’re seeking help, good luck – she just passes you off to the Prince math lab.”
